United Bat Control specializes in solving bat problems.

Yep.
Here’s the culprit.
that’s the actual dead bat in Castaic? :)
SCVTV Santa Clarita Yep. Wasn’t dead yet. Just rabid.
Nothing like the movies…no foaming of the mouth Old Yeller style. Lol
Can’t believe how tiny it was!
Glad I called! The abnormal behavior is what made me call animal control.
Never to touch a bat if found. Make sure to warn children. This little guy was about the size of a mouse and kinda cute. Could have been much more serious had any of us or our pets had come in contact with it.
Jessica, have you had your house inspected to ensure bats haven’t infested the attic or walls? It’s a good idea to do so before bat maternity season begins, which is when colonies start birthing new pups (babies).
So glad you were the one to find it Jessica, and not one of the kids or the dogs.

Poor thing. Please dont declare war on bats out of ignorance. they play an important role in our world.
Yes, exactly! We respect all living creatures. Bats have a great purpose and we appreciate them. This is not a call to kill every bat seen. Rather it is more of a lesson in how to spot abnormal behavior that may indicate an infectious disease and a warning not to take chances with touching an innocent looking bat.
In this case I placed a box over him and the animal control take over.
Glad no one touched it!!! Thanx Jessica for the warning! ??
